Monster Thanksgiving Dinner

Bullard, the werewolf, is having Thanksgiving Dinner with his boyfriend, Fred, foster mother, Giselle, and foster brother Renaldo. They're a having a pre-historic diatryma bird, instead of turkey, for their huge family feast!

I started this drawing when I was on vacation in Arizona with my Dad and Stepmom about a month ago, but only recently found the time to color it!

Wolves in the Land of Liberty

Petre Wolfslavic, who lived for long enough to see disco and microwave ovens, told his great grandchildren this little story. "I was only 7 years old when my family left Czechoslovakia in 1900. Papa and Mama had a hard life working in the factories they told me and they didn't want the same for me. When they got the opportunity we fled the country and then passing through much of Europe until we were able to catch a ship heading west. After weeks of passing over the Atlantic Ocean Papa called out to Mama and me. We saw plenty of towers as we approached New York and soon Papa pointed out to the Statue of Liberty with tears in his eyes. He said, "There she is, the beautiful goddess freedom!" and we knew that we made it to the Land of Opportunity!"

I thought that it would be great to show how that this nation was founded by immigrants and that is what makes America a great melting pot. No one deserves to be here more than anyone else, so I just thought that this would be a good drawing and story for the 4th of July!

Now Henry could move in with her and she could take care of him for the rest of his life! Happy Valentine's Day!

Love and Joy Come to You!

This is a drawing of a young Rusty being chased around for fun by his sisters in front of his mother and father after Christmas Dinner years ago! 
I was inspired by the "Wassail Song" created long ago by an unknown writer and/or singer. I loved how Walt Kelly, of the old Pogo comic strip, did some Christmas Season cartoons involving this part of the song. I am using the words "father" and "mother" in place of the original lyrics "master" and "mistress" because those terms are out of date by modern terms. Anyway, I just though this would be a fun and cute family Christmas drawing and Merry Christmas to you all!

Easter Bunny Foot Tickle

Joe and his new girlfriend, Hilda, decided to a break from hiding Easter eggs. They both sat and relaxed in the grass, then Joe laid down to relax even more and then he got the idea that he thought it would be funny to see how grossed out Hilda would be if he placed his foot on her lap! He did just that, but instead of freaking out, Hilda grabbed Joe's foot and asked "Are you ticklish Joe?" Then Joe gave a look of fright, but then he smiled "You wouldn't to that to me, it was only a joke" Then Hilda tickled Joe's foot realizing how cute his laugh was, while Joe struggled the best he could and realizing that she is much smarter and stronger than he thought she was! =:D

Good King Grizzly Bear Wenceslas

This drawing I made is based on one of my favorite Christmas Carols, Good King Wenceslas! The song is a story of a king from the Middle Ages that felt bad for a peasant that he spotted out his window. Wenceslas decided that the peasant could use some good cheer so he got his page to gather food, wine, and pine longs for the poor man. Wenceslas and his page journeyed through the cold windy night to the peasant's home, but the page couldn't long endure the cold weather so, he told the page that he would warm up if he put his feet in his footsteps. By miracle, the page, along with the king was able to make it to the peasant's home and bring him these gifts. I love the story because it tells that it is better to give to the less fortunate and help your fellow man than to be full of greed. You can hear the song here : Good King Wenceslas  Merry Christmas!
